Answer:

The cloth dyers favored Indigo over woad is because it gave a rich blue coloration to the cloth whereas the dye from woad was faded and dull.

Explanation:

After the rise of the British, the growth in the cultivation of indigo considerably increased. The increasing demand even led to the exploitation of the Indian farmers since the Britishers forced the Indians to grow more Indigo. This demand increased due to the reason that the dye from indigo gave a rich blue color to the cloth and thus the dyers preferred Indigo instead of woad.
